Then just "telnet <server-ip> <port-number>"
For example: Telnet 192.68.1.101 8080 If it opens - well, the port is open! Regards, Michael B.

It's an internal IP address. I want to open a network port on my server and see if I can use portqry to see if it's open. Network team tells me that the server's locked down, but I don't think so..

Use something like nmap, or portqry, or tcpview to see what ports are open on your server (or "netstat -ano" for heaven's sake!). I'm happy to run a scan for you at a given IP address, but you have to tell me what that IP address is! Regards, Michael B.

I am looking to prove the network team wrong.. The firewall looks to be configured wrong, but they keep blaming my server. I am looking for an application to run on a server, that would open a network port and respond to a port query. Thinking that something like a telnet server, assigned to answer on a non-standard port would work, but don't want to install IIS, etc. on the server to do it.
